Barilla Chairman's Interview Prompts Boycott Call
snopes.com: Barilla Pasta Anti-Gay Remarks
Possibly the first argument regarding same sex couples adoption rights being based on the "child's right to choose."
He announced on air that he would never feature a gay family in one of Barilla's ads. Clearly unaware that gay people can actually hear what he says on the radio, Barilla added that he had "no respect for adoption by gay families because this concerns a person who is not able to choose." He then encouraged those of us who found his statements offensive to eat another brand.
